Stanton, United States Ambassador to Thailand Luang Bisuddhibaedya Suriyabongse, M.D., Bangkok, Thailand Daisetz T. Suzuki, Otani Buddhist University, Kyoto, Japan Far Eastern Studies at Cornell University SINCE the outbreak of World War II, Americans have become aware that the Far East is no longer remote in space or importance and that America’s destiny is inseparable from that of the nations of Eastern and Southern Asia. At a time when Chinese-American relations are worse than they have been for more than a century, China is assuming the position of a great power. Japan has been readmitted to the family of nations after the crushing defeat of her effort to conquer the whole Far East. Russia has undertaken to play a dominant role in Asia. One hun­ dred and sixty million people in Southeast Asia are emerging from the controls of colonialism, while the United States is striving to keep them from falling under the controls of the Kremlin. India, Pakistan, and Ceylon, freed by the British, pursue their own ways. With all of these the United States is deeply involved in one way or another. Yet Ameri­ can understanding of Far Eastern peoples and cultures is far from ade­ quate. There is a dangerous shortage of experts on the Far East. Cornell University has long had a general interest in this area. The Wason Collection of books on the Far East, housed in the University Library, was established in 1920. A general course in Asian history was taught regularly from 1907 to 1933 by the late Nathaniel Schmidt, and courses in Chinese history and Asian anthropology have been offered since the early 1930’s. Now, as a contribution toward meeting current needs, Cornell is concentrating its Far Eastern resources on China, Southeast Asia, and India. Full graduate programs on the first two have been organized. The first aim of these programs is to develop experts on China and Southeast Asia; the second aim is to increase knowledge of these areas through research both on the campus and in the field. The demand for experts on China and on Southeast Asia has grown steadily since 1945. There is need not only for specialists trained in the humanities and in the social sciences, but also for natural scientists and technical personnel who have a knowledge of natural and cultural con­ ditions in the region and who are therefore prepared more effectively to pursue their technical activities there. The most urgent demand for trained personnel comes from the various departments of the American government and from universities and colleges, but there is also a demand from international agencies, business firms, the press and radio, and mis­ sionary bodies. A recent check shows that thirty-five of the thirty-eight alumni of the graduate and undergraduate programs of the Cornell De­ partment of Far Eastern Studies either hold positions having to do with the Far East or are pursuing in the Far East or elsewhere advanced studies relating to that region. Hardly less than the need for trained specialists is the need for research on these two areas. While our knowledge of China greatly exceeds our knowledge of Southeast Asia, so rich and complex is Chinese civilization that much remains to be done. Southeast Asia has been so neglected by both Oriental and Western scholars that there are great gaps in our knowledge of even the most elementary facts. Particularly urgent is the need for systematic, collaborative, and cumulative work in both the humanities and social sciences—work which requires the careful collec­ tion and evaluation of data from every possible source and using every possible scholarly means. A characteristic feature of the programs described in this pamphlet is that they are “area” programs; that is to say, in each the specialized knowledge and methods of a number of fields or disciplines are brought together and focused on the peoples and cultures of a particular area. This area approach is supplied in the Cornell programs through inter­ disciplinary courses and seminars in which several professors, represent­ ing different fields, cooperate. The first area work on the Far East at Cornell was organized in 1942 when courses on China and Southeast Asia were set up to meet the de­ mand of students who anticipated war service in the Far East. This was followed in 1943-44 by a Chinese Area and Language Program that was operated as a part of the Army Specialized Training Program (ASTP). In 1946, the Department of Far Eastern Studies was created in the College of Arts and Sciences to bring into the regular curriculum teaching and research methods developed as a result of the ASTP and other similar wartime educational developments at Cornell and else­ where. This department now administers an undergraduate program in Far Eastern Studies and two graduate programs on China and on Southeast Asia. Graduate Programs on China and Southeast Asia THE graduate programs on China and Southeast Asia, described sepa­ rately below, have several features in common. The work of the graduate student at Cornell is guided and supervised by a Special Committee made up of professors representing the major and minor subjects in which he elects to concentrate. A candidate for a graduate degree enrolled in the China Program or the Southeast Asia Program must do his major work in one of the recognized disciplines such as anthropology, economics, government, history, linguistics, litera­ ture, or sociology. (It is in this major field that he receives his degree, since Cornell offers no advanced degrees in Chinese or Southeast Asian area studies as such.) He must do work in Far Eastern Studies as a minor field, and within this field he may elect to concentrate his area study either on China or Southeast Asia. His study in these major and minor fields is coordinated throughout. The integration of discipline with area knowledge is demonstrated in his dissertation, written to satisfy the re­ quirement for his degree, but on a topic relating to China or Southeast Asia. The requirements of the Far Eastern Studies minor includes a thorough factual

  • China: a Resource Unit for Secondary Schools
    Prepared originally by a group of prospective social studies teachers at Brooklyn College and edited by Professor Leonard S. Kenworthy. AFFAIRS MATERIALS Brooklyn College Brooklyn I 0, N. Y. Revised Edition: 1959 p.l Resource Unit on China for Secondary Schools Introduction China is in the news today--and will undoubtedly be in the news for years (or centuries ) to come. It is the world's largest nation, with approximately 650 million per­ sons--or about one person in every four on our globe. In size it is the world's lecond largest country-­ next to the U.S.S.R. in total area and larger than Canada, Brazil, and the U.S.A. It is a country with nearly 4000 years of history and of great contributions in many fields to the world. In this vast land there is a revolution underway today which is political, social, and economic in nature. This revolution has caused the rest of the world to watch China with interest--and in some cases with great concern. Certainly the repurcussions of this revolution are being felt all over the world. Furthermore, the fact that the communist government of China has not been recognized by the United States and has not been admitted to the United Nations and its specialized agencies has provoked heated and bitter discussions around the globe. These questions are still being debated and dis­ cussed and will be for some time to come. What happens in China is of profound interest to the rest of the world. It is a country which needs to be studied in secondary schools throughout the United States.

  • Chapter Twelve in Retirement
    CHAPTER TWELVE IN RETIREMENT In June, 1939, and at the age of 76 Jefferson entered retirement. Not heavy and bowed with the weight of years, he wished to continue his employ and keep himself busy, "to have work to do and reasons to live for." The man did busy himself for the next ten years, though he was obliged to shift the locus of his commitment from the classroom to matters beyond. Perhaps it was a wishful thinking that made Jefferson insist he had good classroom years still before him: at this age he readily admitted he fell asleep with light provocation, needed a nap after lunch, had taken lip reading lessons as a one-man class from the Normal's Miss Bunger as early as 1937, and by 1939 found a hearing aid desirable. Nevertheless he continued his daily constitutional--Dne mile a day on foot--until the year of his death, 1949. Annually be­ tween 1942 and 1946 he painted parts of his spacious home and other­ wise cared for the establishment: twice he turned his car over on the nearby Jackson road, escaping injury and refusing medical attention. Certainly age had not incapacitated him, though he was obliged to temper his more robust inclinations. In place of manually shovelling the snow from his sidewalks and house paths he employed a snow scooter on wheels. In place of the winter daily mile before breakfast, he would wait until a later hour when it was warmer. Further, a heavy blue serge suit and Alaska seal hat, gifts from two of his children, Geoffrey and Phoebe, and halibut liver oil capsules taken daily were pieces of an armory he employed against the winters of the forties, which he had not adopted previously.

    RE-ENVISIONING GERMANY’S MAPPED SPACE: (RE)CONSTRUCTING NATIONAL IDENTITY, 1945-1961 By MATTHEW D. MINGUS A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2013 1 © 2013 Matthew D. Mingus 2 To Lindsey 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A great number of people were critical to the completion of this project. In fact, had it not been for particular individuals, I doubt that I could have withstood a great deal of the institutional nonsense that passes for ‘administration’ in American academia today. I am, however, obligated to say kind things about ‘the hand that feeds’ and so I admit it: the University of Florida subsidized my ability to eat, rent an apartment, and do very little else. There have been other, more reasonable sources of financial support for my research. The UF History Department provided me with a dissertation research grant which helped launch me across the Atlantic and into the German archives. The Leibnitz-Institut für Länderkunde in Leipzig was also kind enough to help fund my trip abroad and provide me access to their wonderful library and archive. Ute Wardenga, Norman Henniges, and Bruno Schelhaas were particularly helpful and enthusiastic about my project. I hope that this dissertation does not disappoint them. The American Geographical Society Library awarded me the Helen and John S. Best Research Fellowship which allowed me to visit its archive in Milwaukee (where I ended meeting two of the finest geographical minds I have ever had the pleasure of encountering: those of Geoffrey Martin and Norman Stewart).

ABSTRACT This thesis attempts to provide a more sufficient understanding of post-reform China’s position in global political economic space than the understandings and conceptions that currently exist in geography and the broader critical social sciences and humanities. This thesis argues that post- reform China is best understood through the global class war framework. The global class war does not conceive post-reform China as “imperialist,” “neoliberal,” or even “capitalist.” Instead the framework understands post-reform China as a social formation that is simply attempting to arise within a global political economic system that is dominated by the global imperialist class camp. Additionally, the global class war sees China’s state apparatus and the Chinese Communist Party as agents that actually resist neoliberalism in general, rather than being “neoliberal.” This thesis also argues that the Chinese Communist Party should be at the center of any analysis of China’s political economy because of the role the Party plays in the Chinese social formation historically and presently.

After many dec­ ades of foreign domination the people of Asia and Africa threw off European control by creating the same political environment used so successfully by the European powers for centuries. The rise of nationalism in Asia and Africa and subsequent decline of Rajahs, Sultans and other local political leaders who co-operated with the West, ushered in a new, perilous era for two-thirds of mankind.
